Looks like my pain is ending. I got my $200 give card and now I can cancel Verizon order and buy any way I want!
 
I'd also like to know if people with an 11/7 ship date (or 10/31 pushed back to 11/7 or later) have seen any movement? Especially if it's for a 6+/64GB/gold...:D

Mine is at the delivery facility with a Monday delivery date. Ordered 9/26, expected ship date 11/7, actually shipped 2 days earlier from Tennessee. No movement on the Verizon website until the day after it was shipped, so don't worry.

----------

It's killing me that my phone is sitting at FedEx until Monday. :(

Mine too, but after waiting 6 weeks, what's two more days?
 
Ordered 6 regular 64gb space grey on 10/12 ship by 11/7. Got an iconic B, removed iconic ship by date and error code -2 with "We received your order and it is in process. Payment not yet taken." and Expected ship date: "Not available at this time." Called and they said nothing is wrong with my order and it should ship soon. They said if there is a problem I should get a call or email. Thoughts?

Call Verzion ASAP make you connect to an order specialist when selecting option make should you choose the option to check status of a previous order. When you connect to CSR tell them you believe there is a problem with your payment option and ask if they can re-enter your credit card info. I got the exact same error as you. I called the same night that I saw my iconic status changed from a C to a B w/ error code -2. After they updated my CC info. I got charged immediately. My phone was shipped early the next morning and I received a tracking number later that day.

Mine too! I thought waiting a month was bad, but knowing its only a few miles away is even worse. Verizon actually wrote "Weekday Delivery Only" in the notes (you can see them with Fedex Delivery Manager), so I knew there was no chance of getting it today (Saturday).

Hello ya'll, I am post number 13,256 and happy to have a reason to post.
I just ordered my 6 plus, silver 64G. I finely got tired of dark phones, and the gold is just a bit to much bling for me. Verizon says that the ship date is NOV 21.
I also placed an order for the iLoome screen protector.
I am not sure what kind of case I will use yet, but I'm looking around.
I had planned to get the best ever skin, but that will only protect it from scratches. I also thought about the Apple leather case, but I have read that at least one, maybe two are showing wear very quickly. If I am wrong, please chime in. Just can't wait for that beautiful phone. ;)

Dang it. I got the run around from customer care to internet sales to Tele sales and back to internet sales. I repeatedly asked if they could re run my card but was told no... I'm pretty sure it was declined due to my billing address as I changed addresses in the middle of waiting for the phone. (I put my new address in anticipation but didn't change it on my credit card yet.) Got frustrated and hung up... then suddenly get an email saying my order is cancelled... which I never authorized. Apparently one of the people I talked to reran my credit application which cancelled it. Talked to a supervisor who said all they could do is reorder my phone for a 11/21 ship by date and wouldn't offer me any thing else. Definitely got screwed over by Verizon... great first impression for someone who is switching over!

Oh wow sorry to hear that...they can update credit card info smh wish you had gotten someone who knew what they were doing before your order got cancelled...they did ask for zip code when Verzion reran my credit card info so I'm guessing that the zip code has match your billing info on your credit card for the charge to be approved. I would call again to see if they can put your new order in the front of the line since you tried to get order corrected before they cancelled it.

~Delivery date - 11/11 by 10:30am
 
What iOS version has people's phones been shipping with? 8.1?


My iPhone 6+ shipped with iOS 8.0.2 but my phone was shipped 2 days (10/22) after iOS 8.1 (10/20) was released. So maybe posters with more recent deliveries will be a better measure for comparison.
 
I ordered iPhone 6+ 64gb gold on 9/30 with a ship by date of 10/31 which got pushed back to 11/7 but it shipped on 11/5 from Coatesville, PA and I stay in Texas so it was delivered 11/7 @ 12:06pm. It is absolutely georgeous.. Well worth the wait. Having such a big phone is going to take some time getting use to but I honestly don't know how I lived with my iPhone 5s lol. My brother is still waiting on his 6+ space gray ordered 10/31 with a estimate delivery of 11/21. I'm pretty sure it will ship before then. Good luck to everyone getting their phones.
 
Well today has come and gone, no shipment or charge to my credit card; and now... Tonight I came home to find an e-mail from Verizon telling me they did not have enough stock to fulfill my order and my next expected ship date is now 11/21! Are you f'in kidding me? The new phones won't ship until 11/21 and I have to have my old devices back to Verizon by 12/1; over a holiday, where everything moves slower? WTF is all I can say... I am so steamed right now...

Okay, just needed to vent, thanks for listening! Good night...

Well I am happy to report that on Friday, the two iPhone 64 GB Space Gray models arrived via FedEx and the 128 GB iPhone 6+ is scheduled for Monday delivery. What a hassle this was just to get that $200 back per phone. Hopefully, Verizon sticks to their end of their deal there! Good luck to the rest of you guys as well. The wait was tough, but there is an end in sight. Now I have to decide whether to keep these or return them and wait for the iPhone 6S and iPhone 6+S; given the TLC memory changes...
 
hi :)
i have a question , i want to buy a verizon's iphone 6 but without contract (unlocked ) with full price !
is it easy as you go to verizon store and ask them for one and they will sell it to you , or its harder than that as they will force( sorry for my english ) you to sign a contract ?

actually my cousin lives in U.S and i will ask him to buy one ! i want verizon iphone because it's support CDMA

You can purchase one full price without a contract if they have one in stock. Keep in mind Verizon does not lock their devices

You should be able to do it no problem. However, they likely won't have it in stock. I'm not sure why but corporate verizon stores (as well as authorized retails I'm sure) don't have stock yet. YMMV of course. I would try Best Buy first, they will be happy to sell you one off contract and it will be easier, quicker, and less of a hassle (won't push services/accessories like VZW will).
 
I just received the wall of text this morning!

What will happen next, and is it too late to change the "ship to" address? I think it might be easier to have the phone shipped to my work address so I don't have to worry about the signature at home.

Thanks!

I got the wall of text on Friday evening (11/07). My Verizon order status now says "order placed 11/07" instead of 10/11. Still no tracking number though :(. I'm guessing you can still change the shipping address, but I'd suggest you call CS to do that and make absolutely sure it will be shipped there and it won't change anything. Last thing you want now is your phone to be in limbo at the FedEx facility.

Apple does not have unlocked iPhone 6 or 6+ for sale yet. You only option is off contract which you can get at any Apple reseller. However keep in mind Verizon iPhones are technically unlocked and will work on any CDMA carrier.

i just asked verizon if i can get a free-contract iphone 6 with full price , they said : you must have a verizon service if you like to be without contract !

so my questions are :
1- can i get a verizon model from apple store without contract at full price ?

2-if i buy a verizon iphone on contract is it still unlocked with other CDMA networks outside the U.S ?

What I did is edge and I'm going to pay off the phone on the first bill. You just have to keep the service for 30 days after the phone is paid off from what I was told.
